Two MBA students were sentenced to life in Pune on Thursday for murdering their classmate—a case of a love triangle gone wrong.

Additional Sessions Judge S S Phansalkar Joshi sentenced Aditi Sharma and her boyfriend Praveen Khandelwal for murdering Udit Bharati on April 22 last year by giving him prasad laced with poison.

All three were 25 and students of the IIHM MBA institute in Wakad, Pune.

Udit and Aditi came to Pune from Jammu where they had studied together in an engineering college. They planned to get married after finishing their MBA degree but their relationship changed.

Aditi met Praveen at the MBA institute and fell in love with him. She wanted to end her relationship with Udit, but he would have nothing of it.

“Aditi and Praveen found a job in Gurgaon but Udit continued to pester Aditi. So both Aditi and Praveen connived to eliminate Udit. On April 22 last year, Aditi came to a Pune lodge and called Udit. When Udit arrived, she offered him prasad mixed with arsenic,” said additional public prosecutor Neelima Vartak

Udit went back to his apartment after eating the prasad and was later taken to hospital where he died.

The prosecution alleged the two had pleaded guilty of murdering Udit at the MacDonald Hotel near the Chinchwad station.

The police had initially registered a case of accidental death only to discover later the presence of arsenic in his body. Remains of the poison were also found in Aditi’s bag.

When the judge pronounced the life sentence and asked Aditi and Praveen if they wanted to say anything, they said they were “innocent”.

A highlight of the case was examination of 33 prosecution witnesses, who mainly comprised forensic experts testifying on administration and traces of arsenic found in the viscera of the deceased.

There is tremendous scope for job opportunities for engineering graduates in information technology and nearly three lakh graduates will get employment in the IT sector this year, C.Thangamuthu, Vice-Chancellor, Bharatidasan University, said today.

Delivering the sixth convocation address of E.G.S. Pillay Engineering College here, he said all students should not be job seekers; some should become entrepreneurs. Nearly 60 per cent of the self-financing engineering colleges were located in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala, and Maharashtra alone accounted for 20 per cent of the colleges. Hence, there was a competition among these States in providing quality education.

Dr. Thangamuthu said 50 per cent of the seats in engineering colleges were vacant in the southern States because the All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the Government were liberal in granting permission for starting colleges. Now, the managements of a number of self-engineering colleges were finding it difficult to fill the seats. However, a number of colleges in Tamil Nadu were providing quality education. The managements should retain efficient teachers to maintain quality, he said.

Dr.Thangamuthu distributed degree certificates to 170 graduates.

R. Raghavan, principal, S. Jayachandran, secretary and K. Ranganathan, Dean, Department of Management Studies, spoke.

A technical college intra-Symposium, `images-2004″, organized by the student branch of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers National Engineering College was held recently in Kovilpatty.

Opening the programme, Commodore C Jayaraj, Commanding Officer, INS Kattabomman Naval Base, invited students to join the Navy hone their technical skills and concepts that might be interesting in the second half of the quarry.

The symposium was first, a technical paper presentation of the “sophomores (second students) and a competition for the first studies beginners.

Topics related to nanotechnology, the environment and wireless systems, optical networks have been the technical meeting. The student describes in detail the technology, which could be adopted for the reconstruction operations, without blood and cancer cells, among others.

Naveen Siddarth B. and T. Satish (both students of department of ECE) at the beginning bags awards for scientific work presentation.

In the competition, the duo, T. Subramanium and Vishu Prakash, won first prize, while the team of Sahasranaman Sanjay Kumar and acted as second prize.

K.S.K. Chokalingam, Principal Administrator, NEC, was under the symposium.

Your first priority should be to clear the 10th Standard examination with flying colours and get into Plus Two in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology/Computer Science/Electronics (PCMB/CS/Elec). On completion of Plus Two, join an engineering college (IIT, NIT or any other college) and clear the four-year programme in the faculty of Electronics/Electrical/ Instrumentation/Computer Science/Information Technology. You will have to consider projects related to your interests while pursuing the engineering programme. This will help you to ascertain the facts of the field of missile technology and focus on satellite technology and imagery if the need arises.

KOCHI: The inhabitants of the city are only a few options for waste as lots of waste gathering again in various fields.

Shocked by the deteriorating situation, which can lead to an epidemic, experts emergency measures for the promotion of Low-Cost, decentralized waste techniques.
